Significance

The [Rh-Pd] ionic gel-soaked bimetallic catalyst for the one-pot hydrosilylation/Hiyama cross-coupling reactions was described. Thus, the reaction of Merrifield resin 1 with Et3N, followed by the anion exchange of 2 with NaI afforded the polyionic iodide gel 3. The polyionic iodide gel 3 was treated with RhCl(PPh3)3 and Pd(OAc)2 to provide the [Rh-Pd] bimetallic catalyst 4. The one-pot synthesis of E-disubstituted alkene via hydrosilylation/Hiyama cross-coupling reaction was carried out in dioxane in the presence of 4 and subsequent addition of TBAF to give the corresponding E-alkenes in 50-95% yield.
